TRANSFORMATION and Markets.

Cheap and rapid transportation is of the ut
most Importance to those who are both producers
and consumers. 1t cheapens all that he buys
and enhances the price of all he produces. The
"LANGFoRD COLONY" is most advantage
ously situated in this respect 1t is between two
railroads that both connect with steamboats,
that run from the Sacramento and San Joaquin
points to the Golden Gate This gives the cheap
est freight and passenger rates for the distance
on this Coast. The markets for all kinds of pro-
ducts are good. The Canneries, Wineries and
Fruit Dealers take all the Fruit raised, at highly
remuneretiye prices. There is an unlimited
demand for all the Wine, Raisins, Figs Prunes
Green, Dried and Canned Fruits that can be
grown. Dairy Products, Fowls, Eggs and Vege-
tables find ready sale. Every acre of this land
when in bearing Fruit Trees or Vines will net
800 per acre. For further particulars apply 10

MiihdreM Hlaine's Protest

New YORK, Feb. "A Washington
special to The World says that Secretary
Bayard has withdrawn the protest of the
United States governments against the sub
mission by Colombia of certain boundary
disputes between that country and Costa Rica
to the arbitration of Spain. The protest
was made by Mr.. Blaine when secretary of
state, and was based upon the idea that our
interests in Panama entitled us to a voice in
deciding who should arbitrate in matters
affecting that country The Colombian
government has given assurance that it in
tended no discourtesy in failing to consult
this government i'll the matter and that it
will carefully respect the rights of our citt-
gems who may be interested in business or
property on the Isthmus. Secretary Bayard
deems this sufficient and has withdrawn tbs
protest.
